Preface
Societal Geo-innovation is the overarching theme of the 20th AGILE Conference
on Geographic Information Science, held in 2017 at Wageningen University &
Research in Wageningen, The Netherlands. This theme reflects the importance of
geographicinformation scienceinsupportofalarge varietyofsocietal challenges,
suchasurbanisation,foodsecurity,waterscarcity,healthquality,energytransition
and climate adaptation. Geographic information science plays a crucial role in
agendasetting,analysisandsolutionsregardingthesechallenges.Theinstrumental
roleofgeo-informationforrealisingthe17UnitedNationssustainabledevelopment
goals to transform our world is also widely acknowledged.
Overtheyears,thecontributionofgeographicinformationsciencetooursociety
has changed both in content and context. Traditionally, the content was strongly
data-centric. Methods, techniques and associated quality measures for data col-
lection and storage were key research and practical challenges. Currently, data
analysis and algorithms for automated information extraction receive ample
attention. This trend is also reflected in the papers submitted to 20th AGILE
Conference. Many of them deal with new analysis techniques and methods for
spatio-temporal data. Hence, a special part in this book on Spatio-Temporal
Analysis.
Another notable change is the context of our discipline. Traditionally,
geo-information professionals determine “what, how and why” spatial data is
collected. The perception of space was mainly based on the view of the
geo-informationscientistandprofessional.Thishaschangedinthelastdecade.Due
to easier to use technology and interest in their environment, citizens became
conscious as well as unconscious collectors of spatial data. This has resulted in a
new research focus to address questions like “how can we utilise ‘citizenized’
spatial data?” Given this new focus, we noticed that even the perception of the
space arena becomes wider.
Nowadays, multiple perceptions of the same location (space and place concept)
aremorecommonthanbefore.Quitesomepaperssubmittedtotheconferencedeal
with the citizens’ view on space; therefore, the other part of the book is about
Spatio-Temporal Perception.

vi Preface
The last 20 years, the Association of Geographic Information Laboratories for
Europe (AGILE) organised conferences and associated activities acted as a mirror
for the developments in our field. Hardy Pundt and Fred Toppen reflect on these
developments in the last part of this book: 20 Years of AGILE. They reflect on
AGILE as an organisation, its members, activitiesand research themes.We highly
appreciate their contribution: a historical account of AGILE developments.
The organisation of the 20th AGILE conference, and also the publication of
associated scientific papers in this book, was only possible thanks to the involve-
ment of enthusiastic individuals and organisations. Local organisers, sponsors,
authors, presenters, reviewers, AGILE council members and AGILE participants,
thank you all for your valuable and indispensable contribution.
